Clutch Head Bit Set - may I borrow from someone?

I need to take apart my 65 Globetrotter windows. They are not available at VTS. Would anyone be interested in lending some to me?
Many thanks,
Dena

Hi,
Most "Toolies" I know would rather lend their partner than a tool! I can't speak for everyone obviously but I did find these for sale here for about $4...
Just thought I'd point it out.
Cheers,
Bruce

You can pick up clutch bits at Home Depot, Harbor Freight, Lowes, or pretty much any hardware store for just a couple of dollars. Not really worth shipping.

I never had any luck finding them at my local box hardware stores. I ordered mine from: McMaster-Carr

I keep a couple of bits in each size in the toolbox.

ChevyDuty has the sets here:

Clutch Head Screwdriver Set-Classic Chevy Truck Parts

About $20 for all four. Ask them and they will identify the sizes.

Here is my favourite solution, I bought this awesome set at Lee valley tools for about 30 bucks. Its 99 different uncommon bit heads great quality too. You can order from their website if you don't have one in town
